Lipski's Confusion Benefits the
Home Secretary.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-Henry Matthews,
the home secretary, who has been under
the ban of popular disapproval, and who
has been maligned by the Pail Mall Ga
Zatte at every turn, and especially be-
cause of his action in the case of Lipski,
the Hebrew murderer, is now on the
crest of the wave of public favor, and IS
given q chance to pose as a martyr. The
Jew. Lipski, has confessed to the muir
der of his neighbOr'S wife and all Lon
don is convulSed by the enormous SEN
sation. 1t has become the all-abSorbing
topic of the newspaper offices, and uni
versal curiosity is aroused as to what the
Pail Mall Gazette will now say. After
giving an entire page to the affair, on
the strength of revelations made by the
Jews solicitor, and commenting in the
sharpest kind of language upon what
he considerd fragrant disregard of
Mr.. Stead, the editor of the Pail Mall
Gazette, will be obliged to make very
ample apology to the home secretary. if,
indeed, any will be accepted. If it
escapeS libel suit for damages it will
be fortunate. LipSki, who was granted
a weeks respite by the queen over Mr..
Matthews refusal to do so, suddenly
despaired of any further leniency in his
case and has confessed that in his at
tempt at robbery he murdered the
woman for whose death he is to be
hanged to-day. The confession, which
startles London, will be of great use to
the home secretary, and those who were
largely clamoring for his resignation
are now open mouthed with aStoniSh-
ment at the unexpected turn affairs

Grand Army Rates.

The wrangle between the various
roads for the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie business to st. Louis is causing addi-
tiOnal complications every day. The
Pennsylvania road and the New York
Central have come to the conclusion
that they want none of the Grand Army
business at the low rates established by
western connections. They have de-
cided to accept none of that business
except at the regular tariff rates. The
other trunk lines have decided to make
rate of l cent for the round trip. or l 19
cents per mile. As some of the western
roads have based. in many instances,
the through rates from the East upon a
basis of cent per mile, they will have
but little revenue left after having di-
Vided with their eastern connections.
The action of the Western Passenger
association in making rate of 1 cent
per mile from territory east of the Mis-
siSsippi and II cents per mile from
points in the Northwest and west of the
Mississippi is also leading to additional
trouble. Some of the roads refuse to
make two rates from different points on
their lines. The Rock Island has given
notice that it would charge but l cent
per mile from all points over its lines
The Alton is understood to have taken
similar action.

Burlington & Northern.

There have been various reports cur
rent within a few days, says the Boston
Journal. that the Chicago, Burlington d
Quincy company was to compensate the
Chicago. Burlington Il Northern for the
loss incurred by maintaining rates, both
past and future loss. There is no doubt
that the Northern road loses heavily by
adhering to schedule rates. and it is a
singular fact that the interstate law,
which was expected to inure greatly to
the benefit of this road is working it
great harm. But there is no redress.
If the Northern road without local bus
mess. cuts rates. the BurlingtOn'S local
tariff rates will have to suffer. The
half-water. half-rail routes are the real
cause of the loss. not only to the North
ern road, but to all roads, as instance
the fact that a New England bag manu-
f2cturer who used to send car load of
bags daily to Minneapolis by rail. now
sends it by rail and the lakes. Note as
well the falling off i'll eaSt-bOund ship
mentS by rail last week-Only Ii, 100
tons for all of the trunk lines. Inter
state act or no interstate act. the
granger roads and trunk lines will not
long endure this diversion of business,
even to protect local traffic. There will
be cut all along the line, and the
Northern road before mentioned may
be expected 10 getits share of the traffic.
This is a depression, but a natural one,
from what it was intended to say
namely, that the Chicago, Burlington Il
Quincy people say the report of com
pensatiOn being allowed the Northern
road is an error. The roads have agreed
to arbitrate rates. but nothing more.
There is 10 new contract between them.
The late decline in Burlington IL North
ern stock is easily accounted for. Chi
cagO sold in narrow Boston market.
There was late buying on consolidation
prospects, which prospects are for the
moment rather dubious, therefore more
selling than buying.

A DESTRUCTIVE BOLT

Lightning Strikes a Barn at
Hampton, Mimi, killing Ten
Fine Imported PercherOn Horses
and Entailing a Loss of 81 5000.
Special to the Globe.
HAMPTON, Minn., Aug. 22.-About 10
O'Clock last night lightning struck the
barn of William Mics & Sons, importers
and breeders of Norman Percheron
horses, at this place, completely destroy
ing it by fire; also smaller one close to
it, together with ten head of lately i'm
ported Percheron horses from France,
one stallion worth 5000, the rest
brood mares and colts, ranging in values
from $500 to $500 each. The total loss is
estimated at $4,000, the insurance only
about $4,000 or $1,000. The barn was
fine, newly-built one, costing $500.
The fine stallion Baptiste, formerly
owned by Mr.. johnson but now by Mics
d Sons, which took the first premium at
the MinnetOta state fair i'm 1856, was
rescued. but had a narrow escape. Five
of the boys of the family were in the
barn when it was struck, and had a
providential escape.

Dies MONIES, To-, Aug, 22.-Delegates
to the Republican convention, to be held
Wednesday, are arriving in pretty large
numbers, indicating an unusual interest
in the proceedings. The delegates al
ready here are generally the active man.
ayers of the several candidates. Their
presence throws no new light on the
chances OF their favOrite sons, unless it
be to confirm the indications heretofore
made in these columns. Judge Adams
is on hand, but few of his supporters
have made their appearance. The
friends of Judge Lewis, from the north
western part of the state, notably from
Plymouth and Cherokee, are present
and very active. Senator Robinson, of
Storm Lake, also candidate for judge,
has not yet arrived, but he is repre-
sented by active workers. The north
western part ef the state being divided
upon the judgeship and also
having candidate for superintendent
of schools makes the situation a pre-
carious one, and there is little doubt
that either Lewis OF. Robinson will with
draw. Considerable interest is already
manifested in the nomination of super
intendent of schools. Prof. Wernli was
the first on the ground, followed by
TOI. fellOWS. Supt. fTOSG, OF CdSS, is
developing considerable strength, while
the extent of the following of Profs.
Sabin and Grumbling is yet to be de-
termined. There is little discussion
of the platform. The convention will
doubtless be asked to favor more Strin-
gent control of railway corporations and
a reduction of passenger rates, and will
probably adopt both suggestions. The
ultra PrOhibitiOniStS will in all prob
ability urge a declaration in favor of
Strengthening the prohibitory law and
a state constabulary to enforce it, but
will probably be defeated.
A. B. Cummings, nominated for the
legislature by the anti-prohibitiOn Re-
publicans while he was out of the city,
has returned and signified privately his
intention of accepting the nomination.
The Democrats will doubtless indorse
both Cummings and Baker and make a
square fight on this issue.

A SAD ACCIDENT.
by a Travelling Salesman for a
St. Paul House.

St. Paul House.
BALAToN, Aug. 22.-One of the
saddest accidents that ever happened in
this section occurred few days ago,
little daughter of Andrew Helm being
almost instantly killed by Homer Whit
ing. Mr.. Whiting is a resident of Tracy,
though seldom at home. He is a travel
ing agent for Whiting & Carlisle, shirt
and gentlemen'S underwear dealers of
st. Paul. His commercial interests, his
residence in Tracy and his ownership of
a farm in this county have made
him familiar acquaintance with
most people in this region. His farm
is near BalatOn, and is tenanted by
Andrew Helm. Mr.. Whiting, on his re-
turn from one of his trips, went out to
his farm, as he often does. His tenant,
Mr.. Helm, had been out hunting for
prairie chickens, and returned to the
house expressing disappointment at
finding none. Mr.. Whiting expressed
desire to see if he could not secure some
game for his tenant, and, taking the gun,
he started around the corner of the
house, which he had but passed when
the gun. pointed towards the window,
was accidentally discharged, its contents
passing through the window and lodg-
ing in the stomach and abdomen of Mr..
Helms little daughter, who was looking
out of the window. The frightful wound
was fatal, and the child survived but
short time.

RECKLESS ASSERTIONS
Made by Virginia Republicans in
an Address Issued Yesterday.

1SSuNo
Special to the Globe.
PETERSBURG, Va. Aug. 22.-The ad-
dress of the Republican state central
committee, of which Senator Malone is
chairman, was made public to-day. The
address is chiefly devoted to a review
and discussion of the Democratic plat
form adopted at Roanoke on the 4th
inst, which, at the outset, is character
lied as ''series of apologies for broken
pledges" Of the Roanoke Democratic
Endorsement of Cleveland it says:
If this statemement is sincere, then the
succeeding statements demanding the imme-
diate repeal of the internal revenue system
and the passage of the Blair bill must be in
sincere: fer the opposition of President
Cleveland to the one and the lack of his in
dorsemcnt of the other Of these measures is
known of all men. The Roanake platform,
the address says, seeks to create the impress
sion among the people that the Democratic
party favors the immediate repeal of the in
ternal revenue system, and adds: 1T may be
that the Democratic managers. who promul-
gated that platform, sincerely wish the repeal
of the internal revenue system from motives
of self-preservation: but when they formally
declare for the repeal of the system as part of
the Democratic faith II is apparent that they
are guilty of an effort TO deceive the voters of
this commonwealth. That system is held by
the Democratic party as hostage to compel
the overthrow of the Republican policy OF
protection TO American labor and industries. j"
THE ADDRESS DECLARES
that the Republican party is now prac-
tically united in favor of the repeal of
the tax on tobacco and fruit distillation,
while the Democratic party is opposed
to the repeal of the internal revenue
system. and appeals to the people not to
waste their votes on Democratic candi-
dates, whese faction favoring the repeal
of these taxes is in hopeless minority
of its own national party. As to the
tariff. the address declares that the plat
form of the Roanoke convention i'm this
respect is at variance with the record of
the national Democratic party. The
Democratic view is reduction of i'm
port duties To virtual free trade and the
maintenance of the internal revenue
system. as means of compelling
the adoption of that un-American
policy. 1t arraigns the Roanoke plat
form as misleading and seeking tO de-
